After setting sail for two days, the couple’s boat crashed into a “submerged object” and quickly sank.

“It was scary. It was really scary, because the waves were tossing our boat from (side-to-side),” Walsh told CBS Denver.

“We began to sink, called sea tow, and (lost) everything we had,” Broadwell said. “It was really dramatic. All the things we had, no matter how tied down they were, were getting tossed and thrown, and hitting us.”

Walsh and Broadwell scrambled to grab some money along with their pug, Remy. They were left with little else.
